Surrounded by fields of sunflowers and wheat in the rolling hills of the unspoiled Val di Chiana, this lovely Tuscan country villa is located between two charming hilltop villages filled with great restaurants, wines, and exceptional shopping - as well as art, history, and beautiful views.
Podere Dadino is a two-story, stone and brick house, typical of the area. It has been carefully restored, retaining the original elements of brick arches, beamed ceilings, and some interior walls of exposed stone and brick. The spacious and comfortable, main house totals approximately 3500 square feet.
You enter through a covered portico (porch, with outdoor table for ten). Inside, three large arches divide the eat-in kitchen (with antique farmhouse table), the dining room with a table for twelve or more, and the sunny living room with large open fireplace and high-end (but comfortable) sofas and armchairs. On the other side of the kitchen are a bathroom with shower; a study with large antique wooden table/desk and a daybed; a TV room with access to the garden and pool area; and a laundry room with plenty of storage space.
A stone staircase leads upstairs to the high-ceilinged, airy, sitting room; four bedrooms (three bedrooms, each with a king-size bed, and one bedroom with a queen-size bed); two baths (one with shower, and one very large bathroom with shower and separate jacuzzi tub); and a large walk-in closet.
The attached guesthouse, approximately 430 square feet, has a separate entrance, two bedrooms (each with a queen-size bed), a small bath with shower, and a kitchen-sitting room with its original stone sink.
The house has plenty of space to be "together" as a family or group of friends - whether at the pool, cooking delicious meals and enjoying them indoors or out, or chatting in the living room. The layout also allows for private spaces when you want some time alone - whether working (or dozing) in the study, having a quiet read in the upstairs sitting room, or finding a peaceful spot under the trees.
The appliances are new. The kitchens are fully equipped and suitable for gourmet cooking. All mattresses, couches, and armchairs are new, comfortable, and of high quality. The bathrooms have modern fixtures. All windows and doors have mosquito screens. Otherwise, the house has been decorated and furnished in traditional Tuscan country-style, with characteristic colors, fabrics, and carefully chosen antique pieces for an authentic and comfortable Tuscan experience.
Although easily accessible and not remote (it is five kilometers from the A1 motorway exit), no other houses are visible from the house or grounds. A 400-meter (approximately 4000 feet long) private, gravel road leads to the house, so the house is well back from the road behind a large field. The house sits on two acres of well-manicured private garden and lawns, offering several areas for grilling or pizza making, dining al fresco, entertaining, or relaxing with a book and a glass of wine.
The grounds have been professionally landscaped with lawns, roses, lavender, flowers and shrubs of all sorts, pots of oleander and aromatic flowers set around mature fruit trees (plums, apricots, pears, apples, nuts, and figs), cypress, and shade trees. The garden includes a productive 50 square meter organic vegetable and herb garden with lettuces, heirloom tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, and more.
The covered front portico, with table and chairs for 10, is a favorite place for breakfast in the morning and dinner in the evening - watching the morning light or the sunset with the hills in the distance.
A wisteria-covered loggia, with traditional outdoor pizza oven, dining table and chairs, is located on the side of the house near the pool, together with a large brick BBQ for outdoor cooking. The loggia is a perfect, shady spot for lunch! And making your own pizzas is a lot of fun.
The 6 by 12 meter (approximately 18 feet by 36 feet) swimming pool, with outdoor shower, gets full sun throughout the day. A stand of trees makes a shady spot at one end of the pool. At the other end of the pool, a rustic, wisteria-covered pergola offers another space for outdoor dining or dozing.
The house is great for a group of friends to relax and catch up; for hosting an extended family or two; for celebrating a milestone birthday, a special anniversary, or a family event; or just as a place to experience Tuscany at its best.
Our caretaker is a life-long local man, who lives very nearby and is available for any problems or concerns. Cooking and extra housekeeping is available.
The property is perfectly located for exploring southern Tuscany and Umbria, either by main road or country roads. The house is just over the 'border' dividing the provinces of Arezzo and Siena, giving you the two prettiest valleys in Tuscany - the Val di Chiana and the Val d’Orcia (a UNESCO world heritage site). Charming towns, history, art, beautiful scenery, great restaurants, wine, and artisan foods are found in every direction.
The nearest village is Lucignano - a five minute drive. The slightly larger village, Monte San Savino, is a ten minute drive in the other direction. Both are historic, charming, and offer beautiful views over the valley. Please note that the house is not walkable to either town, because of no sidewalks or direct paths.
Siena is 35 kilometers away, Arezzo 20 kilometers, Cortona 15 kilometers. Montalcino, Montepulciano, Pienza, the Colli Aretini and Colli Senesi wine roads (and wineries), the hot water mineral spas south of Siena, Etruscan archaeological sites, and many other places of interest, including events, festivals, local markets, and the designer outlets are easily reached for day trips. We provide a detailed House Book that offers suggestions and advice on restaurants, shopping, places to visit, things to do, and much more.
We are proud of our many 5-star reviews, and Please email with any questions, and check our website. We love the house and the area - and hope you will too.

Well, we liked it so much last year that we came back! A beautiful house in a beautiful area, close to Siena, Arezzo, Montepulciano and many more beautiful towns and villages. A number of excellent restaurants in near-by Lucignano. The house is very well equipped, with everything you need, and it now even has a teapot. The pool area is wonderful.You will not be disappointed if you choose a holiday at Podere Dadino.

Great team who provides the services from booking, via check-in and stay. Lovely and helpful staff. Great surrounding at the property with great indoor and outdoor cooking facilities. Pool and property was excellent served by Pietro! Thanks to Victoria, Lolita, Vanni and Pietro!
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2024
We (9 people, 2 families, all "children" grown up) enjoyed a wonderful 2 weeks at Podere Dadino. The house is beautiful and genuinely seems to have everything you need. All the beds are very comfortable and the nets on the windows are life savers. The garden is beautiful and so well looked after and the pool area is amazing. The "young people" says it's the best pool we have ever had, and we have been coming to Italy every summer for a number of years!
The location is perfect: near the main road, but very quiet, and so close to two lovely small towns, with lots of restaurants to choose from. And very drivable to Siena and Arezzo.
Would definitely recommend a stay at Podere Dadino and we would love to return.

The house is in a quiet location and while not immediately next to the big attractions of Florence or Sienna it is in a great location if you want to explore Tuscany. It is extremely well equipped, even down to spare phone charging leads. The layout of the house is ideal for groups or family and the pool is just fantastic. If you stay here, you will not be disappointed.
